LOVE HINA: REINCARNATED SOUL

Love Hina is the property of Ken Akamatsu, Castlevania is the property of Konami, except for Gabriel Belmont he is mine.

AUTHOR'S NOTES: Hi everyone, and welcome back. Well it's time for the true fun to begin, at least for me anyway. Finally the entrance of the Castle of Eternal Night, the Center of Chaos...Castlevania! For the things dealing directly with the castle and leading up to it's appearance there is something I just had to do for all of it...Make a soundtrack of course. One of the best things about Castlevania is the great music, so I picked out music that best fits either the different areas of the castle or the battles with the boss monsters or even the resurrection of Dracula and his castle and his ultimate defeat. When ever a song begins I'll have it in parenthese, I'll also say when it stops. At the end of the chapter will be a list of which game the song comes from. I'll also tell you were you can download them for free if anyone is wondering. Now on with the show.

CHAPTER ELEVEN: RESURRECTION OF A NIGHTMARE, APPEARANCE OF THE DEMON CASTLE

It has been over a month since Gabriel restored Kanako's humanity, and stoped Erebus from unleashing the full power of the Hina Blade. Since then everything has been realatively peaceful, well at least for the town of Hinata anyway. Yet for some time now Gabriel has been plauged by strange dreams, dreams where he is not himself but another person entirely. At this very moment he is having another dream as we speak.

A man walks into a darkend throne room he looks very much like Gabriel, the lights go up and a man in red armor with blood red hair can be seen siting on the throne he looks up to the man who stands before him."Welcome. I have been waiting Leon." the man in the red armor says "Walter...I will never forgive." says the man that resembles Gabriel who is now identified as Leon. "I see. It seems you have enjoyed the gift that I gave you." says Walter "Yes thanks to that I noe have the power to defeat you." says Leon. "That power is quite something...But I am beloved by the night. You will taste my powers." says Walter "I'll kill you AND the night!" says Leon with rage in his voice."Intresting. Now the curtain rises on this delightful little game." says Walter.

Leon then runs at Walter srtiking him with his whip. When he strikes him the black stone around Walters neck shatters and Walter feels pain from the whip."What." Walter says "Now,there is nothing left to protect you. I'll fullfill my promise to Sara now!" says Leon."Not yet. The power of the night is still full, I shall teach you the meaning of true terror." say Walter as he and Leon engage in a fierce battle. In the end Leon triumphs, "It can't be...This should not have happened..." says Walter "Sara's suffering...and Rinaldo's grief...Carve them into your cursed body and perish." says Leon "But.. with my powers I will surely come back to life... I could not obtain the Crimson Stone but some day, it will be mine!" says Walter.

The room is then filled with an evil laughter as a cloaked skeletal figure weilding a scythe appears in the air. "No! You betrayed me?!" says Walter "I shall take your soul." the being says as Walter's body vanishes and becomes enrgy gathered by the creature. "This power... I offer to the king who weilds the Crimson Stone!" the creature says as the room is filled with a bright light. From the light steps a man he is handsome with long black hair."Excellent... I never spent a better night." he says "Mathias!" Leon says "You didn't dissapoint me Leon. I knew without a doubt that you would accomplish this." Mathias says. "What is the meaning of this?" says Leon "I needed a powerful vampire's soul that is all." says Mathias. Are you saying you used me." says Leon

"Not just you. You're betrothed, Sara, Rinaldo, and Walter... I used all of you.I never thought it would go so well though." says Mathias "Is that-that stone... the Crimson Stone?" says Leon. "Ah you know it? I'm impressed.I made Walter's soul mine with the power of this stone." says Mathias "I sense a rage from this whip...Mathias! You abandoned humanity?!" says Leon. "That's right. By becoming a vampire, I obtained eternal life. That was my goal.It was my revenge against God!" says Mathias "Revenge against God?!" says Leon "We have risked our lives and fought for the sake of God...But God mercilessly stole away the one I loved most...When all I ever wished for was Elizebetha's saftey!! If limited life is God's decree,then I shall defy it!!And within that eternity, I shall curse Him forevermore!" says Mathias.

"Mathias..." says Leon "Leon, after what you've been through you should know..." says Mathias. "Yes I do understand, how you feel. I too..." says Leon "Then come with me. I will give you eternity too." says Mathias "You wretched fool." Leon says "What?" says Mathias "Is this what the woman you loved would have wanted. The Mathias I know would not have loved such a woman." says Leon. "Elizabetha was a kind, honourable woman. She was concerned only for me to the very end. That is why I hate Him! Am I wrong?! Did you not defeat Walter with hatred in your heart too?" says Mathias "Yes! I'd be lieing if I claimed otherwise, but defeating him...No, preventing others from suffering the same cursed fate...That was Sara's dying wish. Granting my beloved's wish. That is all I can do to prove my love to Sara. Eternity without her would be nothing but emptiness." says Leon.

"Leon, I thought that you would understand...Dawn is coming...Farewell,Leon. Death he's all yours." says Mathias as he turns into a bat and flies through the window out into the night "Stop!" says Leon to no avail. Death then transports himself and Leon to another world "No!" yells Leon "By my master's orders. You'll be destroyed here and now!" says Death. Leon and Death engage in an intenses battle with Leon defeating him.When Death is beaten they return to the real world."To think that I would be..." says Death "I have the power to destroy all related to the vampires. Though you have divine powers, you are no exception." says Leon. "Unfortunately for you, as long as my master survivies, I will rise from the dead..." says Death "I see. Give him this message: You have become a cursed being and I will never forgive you. This whip and my kinsmen will destroy you someday. From this day on, the Belmont Clan will hunt the night." says Leon as Death fades away.

Gabriel wakes up instantly from the dream "Why have I had this dream more frequently as of late? It's so strange, does it mean something?" Gabriel thinks to himself. Gabriel simply shrugs it of for now and gets up and dressed and goes downstairs for breakfast. After another lovely meal by his beloved Shinobu, Gabriel decide to take a walk to clear his head. "How man nights in a row have I had that dream? Who am I kidding I've had that dream every night for two weeks now. That dream is all I think of through the day for the most part, I even stop thinking of Shinobu for a time. The dream must mean something but I just don't know what." Gabriel thinks to himself.

As he walks and thinks he fails to notice someone walking towards him until the two collide knocking each other over. "Oh miss I am so sorry. I wasn't paying attention to were I was going here let me help you up." Gabriel says as he stands up and takes her hand. Now that he gets a good look at her she looks very familiar she wares a gi and hakama much as Motoko ware's when she trains, she also is wearing a straw hat. She has long dark hair and is very beautiful "Oh my there is no need to apologize, no one was hurt. It seems as though you had a lot on your mind, I hope nothing is the matter." she says. "Don't worry miss my problems are nothing you should worry about. I'm sure you have better things to do than be bothered by me." says Gabriel.

"You have a strange aura about you. I can sense that you're special.It was nice meeting you though young man. May our paths cross again." she says as she leaves. "Now that was weird. She said I was special, did she feel my power as a vampire hunter? Perhaps she did, I could feel great power from her. Perhaps we will cross paths again." Gabriel thinks to himself, after awhile he heads back to the Hinata.

When he gets back he is suprised to see the woman he bumped into earlier. When the woman sees Gabriel she speaks "Why hello young man so we meet again. I had not expected our paths to cross again so soon." she says. "It's you. The woman I meet earlier, but why are you here?" Gabriel asks "This is my older sister Tsuruko. She is here to visit Gabriel." says Motoko "I see. Then it is a pleasure to make your aquaintence Tsuruko." Gabriel says with a formal bow.

"My you're quite the gentleman aren't you. Might I ask your name?" asks Tsuruko "My name is Gabriel Belmont." says Gabriel. "Did you say Belmont? Motoko why did you not tell me that a Belmont was living with you?" asks Tsuruko "Well I didn't think you needed to know." Motoko says. "I can't believe how much you've grown up Gabriel. You have become a very handsome man, and a strong hunter more so than your father." says Tsuruko "Excuse me but how do you know me and my father?" asks Gabriel. "You don't remember me do you Gabriel? I'm not suprised it was about ten years ago when you last saw me. It was when Dracula had been resurrected." says Tsuruko.

"I don't remember anyone that resembled you being around me or my family when Dracula was last resurrected." says Gabriel "You see I was sent to stay with your family for a time so I could learn more about western demons and monsters. While I staid with your family you and I became very close. You were always calling me big sister, it was so cute." Tsuruko says as Gabriel begins to blush from embarssment, everyone laughs at this.

"So tell me Gabriel how long have you been a hunter?" asks Tsuruko "Since I turned fourteen and I passed the rite to become a vampire hunter and I was given the Vampire Killer.I am sorry for not rmembering you earlier but it was just so long ago." says Gabriel. "That is alright, I didn't recognize you at first either. Tell me though what brings you to Japan?" she asks "I'm here to finish school and learn about the monsters and demons of Japan." he says. "Are you sure that's all?" she asks with a smile on her face.

"Quite sure actually.Why?" Gabriel says "Well I just had a wonderful idea that's all. Since you're old enough...You could marry Motoko." says Tsuruko. "What!" everyone says in unison "Sister what are you doing?" asks Motoko "Yeah why did you suggest that?" asks Gabriel. "Oh but I remember talking with your father about how when you were older you and Motoko would make a good couple, and he considered the idea quite a bit too." says Tsuruko "Sister you never said anything to me about this." says Motoko "Nor did my father ever say anything to me about this either. Besides as much as I care about Motoko I am not in love with her." replies Gabriel.

"Oh really, so you have a girlfriend. May I ask who?" says Tsuruko "It's Shinobu. If you must know." says Gabriel. "What a shame you're already taken. If you and Motoko were married your children would be very strong indeed." says Tsuruko "Tsuruko the idea of marrying someone simply because their children would be powerful is something that I think is wrong. When one marries it should be out of love." says Gabriel. "I'm very sorry for saying that I should not have. Know though that I am very glad that you have found someone to love." says Tsuruko.

"I accept your appology and thank you as well." says Gabriel "Now though I have one more thing I must ask you Gabriel." says Tsuruko "What?" asks Gabriel. "I would like to spar with you to see just how strong you have become." says Tsuruko "It would be an honor...Big sister." says Gabriel. "Good then shall we say in one hour then?" asks Tsuruko "Sounds good to me." replies Gabriel.

(Vision of Dark Secrets)

However at the same time as this happy reunion at the Hinata in an underground chamber deep in the forests that surround the town of Hinata a dark ritual is about to take place, and for what purposses remains to be seen. "Soon the time for our lord's resurrection will arrive and he will usher in a new era. He will cleanse this world with the searing flames of Chaos!" a female voice says as the others assembled chear her words. The people begin to chant words in Latin "Now brign forth the girl so she may help revive our master." the woman says as a young girl is brought forth to an alter that is inside of a pentagram. The girl strugles to get free but to no avail for her bindings are to tight.

"Now we shall sacrifice this girl to resurrect Count Dracula our master so that he might make this world one of everlasting darkness." she says as she begins to chant words as well while raising a knife in the air before plunging it into the girls chest killing her and spraying her blood on a casket. Moments later energy flows around the casket and a bright light and a multitude of bats engulfs the room. When the scene is over a man dressed in black wearing a cloak with whie ahir and and a goatee stands before the gathered people.

"I am once again resurrected to this world by my loyal followers. This time I shall not be stopped not even by the Belmonts! Tell me were I am. This is not my homeland, I can sense it." says Dracula. "We are in Japan my lord. We felt that if you were here your cances of gaining power would be easier without the Belmonts." says the woman. "I see. Your plan would have been flawless save one minor detail." says Dracula "Which is my lord" says the woman. "There is a Belmont here nearby! I can sense him." says Dracula in an angry tone "Frogive us my lord we did not know." the woman says with fear in her voice.

Dracula does not answer her but merly closes his a moment and looks as though he is thinking."My lord are you all right?" asks the woman "I am fine. I now have some idea who I am dealing with. It is the son of Nicholas Belmont, he is but a boy he should not prove a challenge. But just to make sure I will get some leverage over the boy by kiddnaping the women that he lives with, especially his beloved. Death!" says Dracula. "Yes master what do you wish of me?" asks Death "I want you to go to the Hinata apartments and bring back with you the women the Belmont lives with understood. In the mean time I shall call forth my castle and give the Belmont a few more gifts." says Dracula with an evil smile as Death bows then dissapears to do his master's bidding.

(End of Song)

At the Hinata every one assembles outside to watch the match between Gabriel and Tsuruko. Tsuruko is the first to arrive "I can not wait to see just how strong Gabriel has gotten since I last saw him." say Tsuruko. However before anyone new what happened the sky grows dark as if it has become night. "I sense an evil presence Motoko be on gaurd." she says "Yes sister." replies Motoko. "Hahahahaha! Good day to you ladies. I have come to take you all to my master." says a voice "Show yourself demon!" demands Tsuruko. ""Demon? You impudent mortal I am no lowly demon. I am Death! And by my masyers orders I will take you all save you two." Death says as he points at Keitaro and Tsuruko.

"Motoko now! Cutting Evil Strike: Second Form!" yells both Tsuruko and Motoko but there attacks don't seem to phase Death one bit. "Fools that attack only works on demons and I am not a demon." says Death as he blasts Tsuruko with a bolt of energy knocking her back. He then uses his powers to levitate the girls into the air and restrain them. Gabriel sensing all this rushes outside to find Tsuruko on her back and Keitaro standing as still as a statue, then he looks to see that Death has the girls with him. "Death!? Let them go now!" says Gabriel.

"Ah the Belmont. I am afraid I can't do that lord Dracula wishes to meet them all very much, especially this one." says Death as he points to Shinobu "Why you son of a..." Gabriel starts to say but is interupted "However if you want them back the master will return them if you can make it through the castle alive and defeat him. So come then son of Belmont your friends very lives depend on it." says Death as he dissapears. "Stop!"Gabriel yells.

It is then that a castle appears in the forests near the Hinata. "Look at that a castle just appeared out of nowhere."says Keitaro "This can't be happening how could he have been revived so soon? Damn!" says Gabriel. "However it happened we must save the others at once." says Tsuruko "I agree we must hurry." says Keitaro. As they speak though the small town of Hinata begins to catch fire as monsters can be seen attacking the town. Tsuruko and Keitaro begin to leave when Gabriel speaks "No! Saveing them is my responsibility. It's my destiny to battle Dracula and his minions, so I ask you two to stay here and wait for the others." says Gabriel.

"We will not let you go there alone Gabriel. It's to dangerous." says Tsuruko "She's right we can help you." says Keitaro. "Thanks I appreciate that you want to help, but I won't risk either of you getting hurt as well. I've trained my whole life for this so I can handle it trust me." says Gabriel "You are just like your father with that confidence. Very well we shall wait here for the others." says Tsuruko. "I'll head into town and get rid of the monsters there then go through the forest and make my way to the castle destroying the monsters there as well. That way the way will be clear of danger for the others. I'll rescue them I swear it." Gabriel says as he looks toward the castle.

END CHAPTER 11

AUTHOR'S NOTES: Well that concludes another chapter. How did you like it? Weren't expecting Tsuruko to have known Gabriel when he was just a little kid were you. The girls have been kidnapped by Death and taken to the Dracula's Castle. Now the question is can Gabriel do what so many of his ancestors have done. Make it through Castlevania and defeat Dracula. To find out keep on reading. Also here is a site that you can download practically all the soundtracks from every Castlevania game ever, Go to the multimedia section, then go to the soundtracks page, I also highly recomend checking out the fan mp3 and overclocked remixes mp3 pages they have alot of great songs especially anything by either Jorge Fuentes or the fourteen year old music prodigy Geoffrey Gunn. You will however have to join fileplanet to download them but it costs nothing and is well worth it in my opinion. Please read and review.
